After Thursday’s practice was stopped and re-started due to sloppy play, the New York Giants returned to the field on Friday and things went much smoother . . . we think.
The media was shooed away in relatively short order, able to only get a glance at the team during warm-ups and little else. Accordingly, there were no live updates when it came to those participating.
On Thursday, wide receiver Golden Tate (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant, but seemed to be moving well. Barring a sudden setback, he is expected to play on Monday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
“He’s moving well right now,” head coach Joe Judge said of Tate. “We’ve been mixing him into some of the things we have been doing in practice. Individuals, a little bit of team work, some group work. He looks like he’s coming along nice. He’s working hard every day and doing what he can to get back.”
Judge offered no updated on linebacker Tae Crowder (hamstring) or tight end Levine Toilolo (hamstring), who were both limited on Thursday and continued to be on Friday.
Finally, it’s important to note that although both are suffering from an illness, defensive back Adrian Colbert and linebacker Markus Golden are not dealing with COVID-19 and each returned to practice on Friday.
Full participation: LB Markus Golden (illness), DB Adrian Colbert (illness)
Limited participation: LB Tae Crowder (hamstring), WR Golden Tate (hamstring) and Levine Toilolo (hamstring)
Non-participant: None
